Hey there! This is just another poem I've come up with in ten minutes or less I suppose. I was actually writing this while watching the American Idol finale yesterday (at least yesterday here in the Philippines), so my attention was more concentrated on the TV than the poem. But I thought it turned out ok.... Yeah right.

So anyways, read and enjoy!

HUES ON CANVAS
by Eyes of Amethyst

Painted is my life on canvas
Filled with different hues
Each and all so different
What colors did I use?

Vibrant were for happy days
Yellow, orange, red
To symbolize those smiles of mine
And all the bliss it led

Faded were those forlorn times
When I felt so alone
That of colors black and grey
I once stood sadly on my own

And there were hues that clashed so much
It symbolized my rage
With blue was orange, red was green
Collided hues on one lone page

I felt the fear emitting from
The colors dipped in fear
Shivering; so terrified
Of all that’s daunting near

And of course the hues of love
Was spread among the rest
Mysterious yet obvious
I welcomed it with zest

And last, not least, was that of hope
Shining brightest of all
For it will be forever there
Until the day we fall

Looking at my life I smile
It seemed so large and vast
Despite the ups and downs I’ve faced
My canvas’s filled at last

Thankies for reading. By the way, about the "red and green" or "orange and blue" thing... if you didn't get it I'm sorry. You see I took sketching classes recently, and our teacher told us the contrasting colors. Contrasting colors are like... when put together they both stand out alot. So... red contrasts with green, orange with blue, and purple and yellow too, but I didn't use that since... hehe no good reason.

Anyways, reveiws are welcome and constructive criticism is appreciated. Sorry if the above paragraph seemed like a lecture or something, but I just wanted to clear that up.
